What are the effects of prolonged shade on synthetic rattan flower box materials?
Prolonged shade can significantly impact synthetic rattan flower box materials, though the effects differ from direct sunlight exposure. While synthetic rattan is designed to resist UV damage, extended shade may lead to moisture retention, promoting mold or mildew growth if not properly ventilated. Additionally, lack of sunlight can slow the natural drying process, potentially weakening the material over time. However, high-quality synthetic rattan is generally resistant to fading and cracking, even in shaded areas. To maintain durability, regular cleaning and ensuring proper airflow are recommended. For long-term use, choosing UV-treated synthetic rattan and avoiding damp, poorly ventilated spots will help preserve the flower box's appearance and structural integrity.
